I don't know if these will serve the purpose, but CapBay has them for $119. Pets Unlimited has a few of these (with the same $119 original price) on their half-price rack, so I guess that would make them $59.50. We've also found that with the items they have on that rack you can *make an offer* so you might be able to get it for even less. (Marine Depot ~ link above ~ has them for $79.99+S&H)

I bought one similar to that from DrF&S, Azoo brand. Unfortunately, it is not what I really wanted since it has to be on all the time and switches to battery when the power goes off. I didn't really want one running all the time. Even more unfortunately, while I had my wrasse in QT and was lowering the salinity a little at a time, he started swimming erratically going from the bottom to the surface very quickly. I had just done a water change and dropped it from 1.013 to 1.012 so I thought maybe he wasn't getting enough oxygen. I grabbed the airpump that I had intended to send back and put it on the tank. Turns out, that's just the way the wrasse swims sometimes. Doh!
